Today I would like to thank my Father for having me stick the portable battery charger in my closet for a cold, snowy day. That cold, snowy day was today. The usually tougher than nails escort was a little under the weather.....a few inches under the weather in fact (laugh here cause that's funny). So I got the charger out of my closet, hooked it up, and turned the key and it started right up. My landlord was out shoveling the sidewalks and noticed my useful item and said that sure is nice to have. I agreed and headed off to work.
Nothing really exciting happened there except for one of the normally more reserved employees came to pick up some black rubbermaid stepstools I had brought in for him and he put one on his head and gave his best Darth Vader impression.
In 3 days I will be heading up to East Tawas to once again jump in the ever-so-refreshing Lake Huron. This will be my 6th year of jumping in the frozen waters. It does get easier after you do it for the first time but it always takes your breath away. I always like having some rookies jump in because if you've never done it, you really don't know how cold it's going to be......so until saturday afternoon rolls around, you think about it. The worst part to me isn't being in the water....it's the part where you're standing out on the ice waiting to jump in that is the coldest, especially if you're bare-footed. Once you get out though the air feels so warm. Anyways, I always look forward to this weekend. It provides a large amount of entertainment.
This past weekend I was able to catch a bit of Tiger Woods 7th straight PGA tour victory. Some of the shots he pulls off are amazing. Shots no one else would even try. I saw him pick a ball clean right out of a bunker.....with a 5 wood.....which traveled about 240-250 yards. In honor of Tigers 7th straight, I think I'll show one of my all-time favorite shots from him.

YOU'RE WELCOME!
You're so the favorite child. No one gave me a battery charger...
Amanda
Amanda, everyone knows you don't need a charger. You are a charger.
Oh yeah. Andy, be careful and I'll be looking for you on the eleven o'clock news. No, actually, unless it makes the new in PHX, it will get by me.
I laughed with the Darth Vader story. Now I'll wait a half hour for the dial up to load and play your favorite Tiger Woods shot.
